No, misha, we didn't end up with nothing. The Champions League is still waiting for us, too.
Nothing means no title, at least for me. CL place is hardly something concerning a top club like United.
PS: There is a long way to go before you have 18 EPL titles.
And oh, I have been an MUFC fan for your entire life
Just to clarify, I'm not a Chelsea fan (AC Milan), I just don't like United mostly because of so many bandwagon fans out there (there are many of them, here, in Israel). Of course, that's has nothing to do with you. I respect true fans.
When I grew up, most people were Liverpool, Tottenham, Everton or Arsenal fans. It's just the way it is: People tend to root for the teams that do best. No one cheered for Man U. I started following Man U because they got (Dane) Jesper Olsen, a favorite of mine. They didn't win the title until they got Schmeichel (1993). I can see where the bandwagon thing is coming from, though. I love the fact that most true MUFC fans would like to see Glazer get the hell out of Manchester, myself included.
Yep. You are old school (fan from the 80's). The bandwagon thing started in the 90's along with over marketing and all that commercial staff.
